This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
Ver. 16. Because he laid down] {See Trapp on "Joh_15:13"} {See Trapp on "Rom_5:8"}
We ought also to lay down our lives] If Pylades can offer to die for Orestes merely for a name, or out of carnal affection at the best; should not Christians lay down their own necks one for another, as Aquila and Priscilla did for Paul? Rom_16:4.
